According to Phoenix police, they received an emergency call to a Circle K near 36th Street and Oak around 9 p.m. Wednesday evening.

When officers arrived at the scene, a clerk at the convenience store told police an unknown suspect threw an object through the store’s window causing some damage.

A short time later, police say they found the suspect less than a half-mile from the Circle K. Police say they “contacted the suspect and engaged in conversation.”

At some point during the conversation, police say the suspect pulled out “unknown objects” and began to attack an officer. A second officer witnessed the attack and fired his weapon at the suspect, according to police.

The suspect, who has not been identified by police, was transported to an area hospital but is now dead.

One officer was transported to an area hospital with minor injuries, but has since been released.
